If you would like to use the tools, sign up for a tool training using the "Tool Training Signup" link to the left. Once trained, you can click to access the StudioLab Calendar to schedule time on the 3D Printer, Lasercutter, CNC, and Motion Capture and Lighting Studio. If you would like to use the tools without training, you may also schedule time to use them with staff supervision.

3D printer and (and Support Cleaning Apparatus) uses the process of additive manufacturing to create a three-dimensional object. Objects can be of almost any shape or geometry and are produced using digital model data from a 3D model.

CNC (Computer Numerical Control) uses the process of subtractive manufacturing to create a three-dimensional object. Objects can be of almost any shape or geometry and are produced using digital model data from a 3D model.

Vinyl/fabric/paper cutter is a type of computer-controlled machine. The computer controls the movement of a sharp blade that is used to cut out shapes and letters from sheets of vinyl, fabric or paper.

Soft station is a space for the building of wearable electronics. It houses a sewing machine, flora electronics, fabrics, and other basic materials used for wearable building.
